The machine is getting better.

One note tho. the model available on the website is optimized to 
serve the general public, it is not that good, you should 
definitely look into using their codex or better, go with claude, 
you'll get a much better UX, it'll be able to inspect binaries 
directly for you using objdump and the likes, ut can disassemble, 
read assembly and a whole bunch of stuff.

AI in the hands of people like you is a deadly combo.
